Twenty-nine boys were entered but it did not take long mu before the semi finals were reached. The boys who thus far had successfully defeated their opponents were: Harvard Gross, Ernest Andreson, Robert Carlson, and Stanley Larson. As was expected Andreson and the diminutive Larson were the winners, but it was only after two hard fought battles that they emerged triumphant. On a Saturday morning before a large gallery of spectators El'lf'rfzr the final match was played off. Larson, playing par golf, was ' unbeatable and easily trounced Andreson six up and five to go. Larson played superb golf setting the record for the tournament with the low score of seventy-four. He was awarded the schools permanent trophy.

A silver trophy was promised to the winner which therefore brought out a large group of entrants, thirty-two in number. After several weeks of playing the semi finals were reached.

For the past two years the championship had been alternated between Kriedberg and Schapiro and now the two boys were to meet again. The finals were played off at North Commons. Schapiro romped through the first set by the score of six one. But Kriedberg, rallying desperately, put up a strong battle before succumbing to Schapirois furious onslaught.
